What happened to ctrl-up arrow and ctrl-down arrow zoom?

To zoom into a track, I used to select the track, then ctrl-down arrow.  Now this seems to default to the last track regardless of what track is selected.

    Do you have any hidden tracks in your project ?

    In X3 those functions zoom all tracks, not just the current track. http://www.cakewalk.com/D...enus1.181.html#1306571

    However . . . if you un-hide all tracks, all the zoom functions (and key shortcuts) work like they used to.

    This was the issue, but didn't this zoom method work even with hidden tracks in X2?  Is this a bug?  I sure hope it's not considered a feature.

    This is usually how I like it anyway.  Just wish the track I have selected would stay centered without having unhide all tracks.

    If it's not a bug, it should be.
    It's a HUGE inconvenience to my workflow.

    Not quite. If you have track folders in the project and if the previous folder is collapsed, the vertical zoom (both Ctrl+arrow and Ctrl+mousescroll) fails to work properly.

    The issue (at least Ctrl+mousescroll) has been confirmed by CW.

    Jlien . . . Ah yes . . . so track folders are not zooming either, but never use them much so haven't noticed that.
    You mention Ctrl+mousescroll not working, but what about Alt+mousescroll, that used to be my go-to zoom command, but now it seems dead too ?

    Sorry, that was Alt+mouswheel (not Ctrl+mousewheel). Yes, it's quite dead (if you try to zoom a track that's in the lower half of the screen).

     I agree 100%.  It's always fun fumbling around trying to do simple edits with clients right behind me watching.
